I have a Baileigh PL1340 lathe and I noticed yesterday that while I was boring the inside of a 8" ID ring that the boring bar was tilting down each time it hit a groove from the torch cut, the plate thickness is 1.5" A36. Upon further investigation, I noticed that the carriage would lift at the left end as well. The PL1340 is a twin to the PM13X40 lathe made by Precision-Matthews. Are there nay PM experts on here that can help me figure out how to solve this problem?
